Its is telling people that "You don't get to choose how you're going to die or when. You can only decide
how you're going to live." -Joan Baez
Sample of Lyrics: All the weary mothers of the earth will finally rest
We will take their babies in our arms and do our best
To me, yes this song is convincing in its messege.
Event: Telling people to choose how they live and not let other people tell them how to live.
People: Refering to everyone.
Place: All over the earth.
1971-1972
New York

The Lyrics:
All the weary mothers of the earth will finally rest
We will take their babies in our arms and do our best
When the sun is low upon the field
To love and music they will yield
And the weary mothers of the earth shall rest
And the farmer on his tractor and beside his plow
Will stand there in confusion as we wet his brow
With the tears of all the businessmen
Who see what they have done to him
And the weary farmers of the earth shall rest
And the aching workers of the world again shall sing
These words in mighty choruses to all will bring
"We shall no longer be the poor
For no one owns us anymore"
And the workers of the world again shall sing
And when the soldiers burn their uniforms in every land
The foxholes at the borders will be left unmanned
General, when you come for the review
The troops will have forgotten you
And the men and women of the earth shall rest
